Slave cylinder ?'s

Well it turns out my slave on my '88 TC decided to take a dump.  I'm kinda stranded right now at school, but I have someone coming down to move me out and bring tools. 

What is all required tool wise?  I realize i have to disconnect the hose and bleed it.  I can't get under the car right now to see for myself so any input is appreciated.

The hose fitting is held in place by a spring pin that you'll need to press out to release the fitting.  Other than that, a clip might be all that's holding the slave to the bell (I don't think I ever used oned though).  No real special tools needed.

The plastic cover has a 10mm hex head screw holding it on.  The slave slides right out and I used a small hammer and drift to remove the pin.  Put it back in with channel locks.  The blead is an allen head, don't know size.  Good luck.

Yea ISU, probably going to be at Cedar Falls tonite for the all night street drags.  Keep your eye out for a silver C6 vette.
